Debt Trap Nation Family Homelessness in a Failing State【電子書籍】[ Katherine Brickell ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Across England, one of the wealthiest yet most unequal nations in the world, families are being trapped in debt and homelessness. In this blistering expose, Katherine Brickell and Mel Nowicki take the reader inside this national scandal. Hundreds of thousands of children are living in "prison-like" hotel rooms and other deadly temporary accommodation for months, years and sometimes their entire childhood.</p> <p><em>Debt Trap Nation</em> offers an intimate and politically energised account of a failing state in technicolour. The decimation of social housing, an out-of-control private-rented sector, austerity, welfare cuts and a cost-of-living crisis has deepened poverty and fed a debt trap that consumes families and is now driving local authorities to bankruptcy. Mothers and their children have not fallen into this trap, they have been pulled into it. The personal and sobering stories recounted here reveal how government choices have forced these mothers and survivors of domestic abuse into impossible hardship.</p> <p>The book urges the reader to rail against state-cultivated and politically convenient stigma that equates debt and homelessness with personal moral failure. It is time to flip the script. It is not women who are failing, women are being failed.</p> <p>Author royalties will be donated to the charity Surviving Economic Abuse.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Failing America's Faithful How Today's Churches Are Mixing God with Politics and Losing Their Way【電子書籍】[ Kathleen Kennedy Townsend ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>Blending inspirational memoir with a religious and political rebuke of American Christianity, the oldest daughter of Senator Robert F. Kennedy delivers a rousing call to arms for spiritual renewal.</strong></p> <p>For too long, religion has been a political plaything of the right-wing in this country. American churches seem more concerned with what people do with their bodies than with their souls. Now, Kathleen Kennedy Townsend issues a spiritual call to arms to those who feel like her that today’s churchesーCatholic and Protestant alikeーare failing to promote the welfare of those who depend upon them. After recounting her personal story in one of the most prominent Catholic families in America, she shows how America’s neediest are now forgotten while their churches fight political battles against abortion rights and homosexual marriages. She provides hope through powerful examples of individuals effecting change, from obscure social workers to The Purpose-Driven? Life’s Rick Warren, and maintains that our individual actions can return our churches to their traditional role as shepherds to their flock.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Education Disrupted Strategies for Saving Our Failing Schools【電子書籍】[ Les Stein ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Failing schools have become the latest academic cottage industry, and they serve as lightning rods for the controversy that continues to surround the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001. Surprisingly, there are only a handful of books that address the topic of turning around failing schools and even fewer that provide a meaningful discussion on how individual schools should avoid failure from the outset.</p> <p>This book will help public school educators understand that turnaround efforts are based on sound leadership principles ? nothing more, nothing less. It also provides school leaders with the critical skills to turn around failing schools and, more importantly, prevent their schools from failing in the first place.</p> <p>Individual chapters address topics such as setting institutional priorities, establishing a positive school culture, improving communications, developing classroom leadership, putting the school on a sound financial footing, and using data to guide the school turnaround. In essence, this book serves as a practical guide for instructional and institutional leaders on how to make a "real” difference in the success of our nation's schools.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Divided Nations: Why global governance is failing, and what we can do about it Why global governance is failing, and what we can do about it【電子書籍】[ Ian Goldin ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>With rapid globalization, the world is more deeply interconnected than ever before. While this has its advantages, it also brings with it systemic risks that are only just being identified and understood. Rapid urbanization, together with technological leaps, such as the Internet, mean that we are now physically and virtually closer than ever in humanity's history. We face a number of international challenges - climate change, finance, pandemics, cyber security, and migration - which spill over national boundaries. It is becoming increasingly apparent that the UN, the IMF, the World Bank - bodies created in a very different world, more than 60 years ago - are inadequate for the task of managing such risk in the 21st century. Ian Goldin explores whether the answer is to reform the existing structures, or to consider a new and radical approach. By setting out the nature of the problems and the various approaches to global governance, Goldin highlights the challenges that we are to overcome and considers a road map for the future.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Never Enough for Yourself: The Fear of Being Seen, the Fear of Failing, and the Anxiety That Keeps You Paralyzed【電子書籍】[ Walter L. Joyce ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>For those caught in the relentless grip of self-doubt, there is a silent, ever-present fear that keeps them from moving forward. A fear of being seen, of showing their true selves to the worldーcoupled with a constant, nagging anxiety about failing. These emotions don't just hinder progress; they paralyze, keeping you locked in a cycle of inaction, constantly second-guessing, and unable to move toward your goals with confidence.</p> <p><em><strong>Never Enough for Yourself</strong></em> dives deep into this paralyzing fear, providing an insightful exploration of the psychological factors at play. It uncovers how the fear of exposureーthe anxiety that accompanies the idea of being judged or scrutinizedーprevents people from living authentically. This book takes a hard look at why we avoid being seen for who we truly are, how we sabotage our own potential, and the cost of living in this self-imposed hiding.</p> <p>Throughout this book, readers will gain a clear understanding of how the fear of failure and the overwhelming sense of never being <strong>"enough"</strong> keep them locked in a state of constant self-doubt. The narrative doesn't just highlight the problem; it dissects the internal dialogue, offering a clear map of the mind's constant battle between ambition and insecurity. It challenges the idea that failure is something to be avoided at all costs and shows how this mindset actually limits growth.</p> <p>Each chapter is dedicated to unmasking a layer of fear that holds people backーfear of being judged, fear of being vulnerable, fear of not measuring up. By dissecting the nuances of these fears, the book reveals how they quietly dictate actions, keeping the individual from taking risks or stepping into new opportunities. The narrative brings light to the fact that these fears are often rooted in deeper insecurities, learned behaviors, and societal expectations that have been internalized over time.</p> <p>What becomes clear is that the anxiety driving these fears isn't merely about the fear of external judgment or failure. It is a fear rooted in the very core of self-worth. The idea of never being enough creates a deep sense of inadequacy, which further reinforces the cycle of avoidance and paralysis. The book shows how individuals are caught in this loop, never quite able to embrace their full potential because they are trapped in a state of constant self-criticism.</p> <p>Through real-life examples and insightful analysis, <em><strong>Never Enough for Yourself</strong></em> shows how fear manifests in various aspects of lifeーfrom work to relationships, from creativity to self-expression. The constant pressure to prove oneself, to meet expectations, and to avoid mistakes, prevents people from taking the necessary steps toward success. The book explores how even those with apparent outward success can be secretly drowning in their own insecurities, afraid that any misstep will expose their inadequacies.</p> <p>But the book does not leave readers in this state of helplessness. It also provides practical guidance for how to break free from these fears and anxieties. Through a series of exercises and strategies, it empowers readers to challenge the beliefs that fuel their self-doubt. The book encourages shifting the focus away from perfection and external validation to self-compassion and acceptance. It offers tools to help readers confront their fears head-on, allowing them to take the necessary steps toward personal growth and self-empowerment.</p> <p>What readers will find most valuable is the sense of clarity they will gain from this book. It's not about simply identifying fears but understanding how these fears operate and how to disrupt them. By understanding the mechanisms behind the fear of failure and the anxiety of never being enough, readers can start to shift their mindset and take bold actions without being paralyzed by self-doubt.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Failing Forward In Saarland【電子書籍】[ Claudette E. Bouman ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Failing Forward in Saarland is the memoir of a transplanted Canadian with Caribbean roots, venturing with her husband and their daughter into Saarland, Germany. The memoir describes the year the family spent in this small forested land tucked away in the western corner of Germany on the border to France. Her teenage daughter made the daily commute to attend a lyc?e in France and her husband spent most days doing research in labs and forests. What was the mother and wife left to do in the Saarland with next to no knowledge of the German language let alone the Frankish accent? As a career teacher, the author’s life had never before been reduced to awaiting the daily home-coming of daughter and husband. During her year in Saarland, she did much more than that. This book is an entertaining and informative account by an experienced Black teacher of what it means to transplant a family into a foreign country and how to enjoy a welcoming culture.</p> <p>Most significantly, this memoir is a meaningful addition to the literary corpus focusing on strangers in a strange land. Even though the author is intimately familiar with the notion ー she has lived most of her adult life in Canada, far from her Barbados birthplace ー she immediately faces the challenges of adjusting to the customs of a new land and, especially, learning to communicate in German. And her story is anything but ordinary ー it’s a moving, often amusing, and sometimes humbling account of the author’s adventures and learning experiences in a largely unknown country without the benefit of fluency in the local language. As the title indicates, the author comes to view these challenges ー and even failures ー as positive “life lessons in adaptability, strength, and resilience” ー failing forward.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Functional Aspects of the Normal, Hypertrophied, and Failing Heart【電子書籍】
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>These Proceedings are from the Fifth Annual Meeting of the American Section of the International Society for Heart Research held at Hilton Head Island, South Carolina, September 21-24, 1983. The program and abstracts were published in the Journal of Molecular and Cellular Cardiology, Vol. 15, Supplement 4, September 1983, Academic Press. This Symposium Proceedings consists of three sections. Section I deals with the mechanical factors and their i'nfluence on coronary blood flow in the normal and failing heart. Section II is developed around the area of vascular smooth muscle and the factors that may control it which ultimately play such an important role in the regulation of coronary blood flow. Section III is primarily devoted to the mechanical aspects of the function of the heart in both hypertrophy and failure including the molecular changes in the myocyte, alterations in neural control, and in inotropic responsiveness of the hypertrophied and failing heart. The editors hope that these three areas encompass a significant body of new and ongoing information that will be helpful to those who work in these areas as well as those who treat patients with varying degrees of myocardial failure or with compromised coronary circulations. The editors express their appreciation to all the contributors and to Ms. Jeri B. McClain for assisting in the organization and compiling of this volume. Francis L. Abel, M. D. , Ph. D. Walter H.

The Conservatives Have No Clothes Why Right-Wing Ideas Keep Failing【電子書籍】[ Greg Anrig Jr. ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Why conservatism equals terrible government--and always will.</p> <p>"Ending the conservative era requires organizing, yes, but also hard thinking and shrewd analysis. When progressives of the future look back at how they triumphed, one of the people they'll thank is Greg Anrig. Drawing inspiration from the work of the early neoconservatives who demolished public support for liberal programs, Anrig casts a sharp eye on conservative ideas and nostrums and shows that many of them simply don't work because they are rooted more in ideological dreams than in reality. Facts are stubborn things, Ronald Reagan once said, and Anrig makes good use of them in this important and engaging book."-E. J. Dionne, syndicated columnist and author of Why Americans Hate Politics<br /> "Greg Anrig's wide-ranging and perceptive book looks beyond the ideology of the right and offers a persuasive account of the many policy failures that have emerged out of the conservative movement. Anrig has put the Bush administration and the right to a test that they themselves have carefully avoided. He has held them accountable not for their ideas, but for their performance."-Alan Brinkley, Allan Nevins Professor of History, Columbia University<br /> "In this well-researched and witty book, Anrig critiques 'right-wing ideas' by examining what the policies and programs that embodied them have wrought over the last three decades.While giving several conservative ideas their due, he finds their record to be mixed at best."-John J. DiIulio Jr., political science professor and first director of the White House Office of Faith-Based and Community Initiatives<br /> "With fastidious research and unimpeachable facts, Greg Anrig establishes the sound proposition that competent governance is incompatible with disbelief in government. The odd combination of the religious right dictating personal morality, 'neoconservatism' preaching unilateral interventionism, and radical libertarian tax cuts have cast our Republic adrift from its moorings. Restoration of common sense to government is long overdue."-Gary Hart, Former United States Senator</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p>In <em>Myth of Money: Breaking Out of the Failing Financial System,</em> renowned finance, crypto, and economics thought leader Tatiana Koffman delivers an insightful and informative take on the past, present, and future of money, and the rise of cryptocurrencies as a transformative force in the financial world.</p> <p>Koffman has witnessed multiple financial collapses firsthandーbeginning with the fall of the USSR, when her family lost everything, followed by the subprime mortgage crisis that marked the start of her new career, and then the economic fallout of COVID-19. As Bitcoin gains its footing globally, she has observed its meteoric rise and catastrophic falls with a keen understanding that these are early steps of a system poised to redefine finance.</p> <p>Navigating her way from traditional finance and into the realms of venture capital, crypto, and digital assets, as she writes about fintech, Koffman's journey takes us from Eastern Europe to Canada, to Bitcoin Beach in El Salvador, to Lebanon, Dubai, Africa, Necker Island, and back to the States. Along the way, she shares hard-earned lessons about the myths surrounding money, even those emerging in the new digital era.</p> <p>Throughout the book, her stories are paired with clear explanations and discussions of technical aspects of finance, in her trademark voice of clarity, incisively cutting to the core of complex topics in a relatable and easy-to-digest manner.</p> <p>Koffman's unique perspective, drawn from her global experience and deep understanding of economic upheavals, makes Myth of Money an essential read for anyone interested in the future of finance and the potential of cryptocurrency to take the place of a system we can no longer rely on to create and safeguard wealth.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

America's Failing Economy and the Rise of Ronald Reagan【電子書籍】[ Eric R. Crouse ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>This book examines one of the most important economic outcomes in American historyーthe breakdown of the Keynesian Revolution. Drawing on economic literature, the memoirs of economists and politicians, and the popular press, Eric Crouse examines how economic decline in the 1970s precipitated a political revolution. Keynesian thought flourished through the presidencies of Lyndon B. Johnson, Richard Nixon, and Gerald Ford, until stagflation devastated American workers and Jimmy Carter’s economic policies faltered, setting the stage for the 1980 presidential campaign. Tracking years of shifting public opinion and colorful debate between free-market and Keynesian economists, this book illuminates a neglected era of American economic history and shows how Ronald Reagan harnessed a vision of small government and personal freedom that transformed the American political landscape.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The Democracy Index Why Our Election System Is Failing and How to Fix It【電子書籍】[ Heather K. Gerken ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Despite howls for reform, the only thing separating us from another election disaster of the kind that hit Florida in 2000, and that almost struck again in Ohio in 2004, may simply be another close vote. In this lucid and lively book, Heather Gerken diagnoses what is wrong with our elections and proposes a radically new and simple solution: a Democracy Index that would rate the performance of state and local election systems. A rough equivalent to the <em>U.S. News and World Report</em> ranking of colleges and universities, the Index would focus on problems that matter to all voters: How long does it take to vote? How many ballots get discarded? How often do voting machines break down? And it should work for a simple reason: no one wants to be at the bottom of the list.</p> <p>For a process that is supposed to be all about counting, U.S. elections yield few reliable numbers about anything--least of all how well the voting system is managed. <em>The Democracy Index</em> would change this with a blueprint for quantifying election performance and reform results, replacing anecdotes and rhetoric with hard data and verifiable outcomes. A fresh vision of reform, this book shows how to drive improvements by creating incentives for politicians, parties, and election officials to join the cause of change and to come up with creative solutions--all without Congress issuing a single regulation.</p> <p>In clear and energetic terms, <em>The Democracy Index</em> explains how to realize the full potential of the Index while avoiding potential pitfalls. Election reform will never be the same again.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Existential Politics Why Global Climate Institutions Are Failing and How to Fix Them【電子書籍】[ Jessica F. Green ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>A new way to tackle the real politics of climate change through asset revaluation</strong></p> <p>It’s no secret that the Paris Agreement and voluntary efforts to address climate change are failing. Governments have spent three decades crafting international rules to manage the climate crisis yet have made little progress on decarbonization. In <em>Existential Politics</em>, Jessica Green explains why this is unsurprising: governments have misdiagnosed the political problem of climate change, focusing relentlessly on measuring, reporting, and trading emissions. This technical approach of “managing tons” ignores the ways that climate change and climate policy will revalue assets, creating winners and losers. Policies such as net zero, carbon pricing, and offsets all cater to the losersーowners of fossil assets.</p> <p>Ultimately, Green contends, climate change is a political problem. Climate politics should be understood as existentialーcreating conflicts that arise when some actors face the prospect of the devaluation or elimination of their assets or competition from the creation of new ones. Fossil asset owners, such as oil and gas companies and electric utilities, stand to lose trillions in the energy transition. Thus, they are fighting to slow decarbonization and preserve the value of their assets. Green asset owners, who will be the basis of the decarbonized economy, are fewer in number and relatively weak politically.</p> <p>Green proposes using international tax, finance, and trade institutions to create new green asset owners and constrain fossil asset owners, reducing their clout. Domestic investments in green assets, facilitated by global trade rules, can build the political power of green asset owners.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Failing at School Lessons for Redesigning Urban High Schools【電子書籍】[ Camille A. Farrington ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Roughly half of all incoming ninth graders across urban districts will fail classes and drop out of school without a diploma. <em>Failing at School</em> starts with the premise that urban American high schools generate such widespread student failure not because of some fault of the students who attend them but because high schools were designed to stratify achievement and let only the top performers advance to higher levels of education. This design is particularly detrimental for low-income, racial/ethnic minority students. To get different results, Farrington proposes fundamental changes based on what we now know about how students learn, what motivates them to engage in learning, and what kinds of educational systems and structures would best support their learning.</p> <p>“This is a groundbreaking and eye-opening study because it does what few studies of high school truly do: get inside the hearts and minds of teen-agers and show what their experience of school looks and feels like to them. The analysis of students who fail is revealing and powerful. There are poignant and revealing stories of just how a few student mistakes or teacher insensitivities lead to unfortunate and long-lasting results. More importantly, these case studies, their nuances, and their implications take us beyond the clich?s and simplistic theories about schools and reform. Most importantly, we read of tangible and intelligent solutions that can be instituted, based on the facts on the ground. I highly recommend this book to everyone interested in getting beyond the typical talking points of school reform.”</p> <p>ー<strong>Grant Wiggins</strong>, Authentic Education</p> <p>“Camille Farrington details how high schools trap students along developmental trajectories distorted by structural factorsーresources, values and practicesーbeyond their control. Grounded firmly in research, she describes a better way forward. This book is an important contribution to the re-visioning of American high schools.”</p> <p>ー<strong>Ronald F. Ferguson</strong>, faculty director, Achievement Gap Initiative, Harvard University</p> <p>"Why is there such a pattern of failure in urban high schools? This is a vital issue for every city in America. Camille Farrington’s analysis of the roots of this problem and suggestions for structural changes to break this cycle is the best I have seen. This book combines research and practitioner wisdom with common sense and heart, and for those of us engaged in this work, presents concrete directions for positive change.”</p> <p>ー<strong>Ron Berger</strong>, chief academic officer, Expeditionary Learning</p> <p><strong>Book Features:</strong></p> <ul> <li>Offers concrete strategies for redesigning high schools based on four dimensions of student achievementーstructural, academic, developmental, and motivational.</li> <li>Highlights the voices of students to illustrate fundamental problems with the way we currently “do school.”</li> <li>Addresses the new Common Core State Standards and the potential of this major reform effort to move us toward equity and excellence.</li> </ul> <p><strong>Camille A. Farrington</strong> is a research associate (assistant professor) at The University of Chicago School of Social Service Administration and the Consortium on Chicago School Research and director of curriculum, instruction, and assessment for the Network for College Success.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
